How to use Nordic Spirit
Nordic Spirit is one of the UK’s most popular choices for nicotine pouches, offering a modern, tobacco-free way to enjoy nicotine. But for those new to nicotine pouches, the question often arises: "How do I use Nordic Spirit pouches effectively?" In this guide, we answer all your questions and provide easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions to help you get the most out of your Nordic Spirit experience. Whether you’re a first-time user or looking to optimise your pouch use, we’ve got you covered.
What is Nordic Spirit?
In short, Nordic Spirit is a brand of tobacco-free snus (also known as nicotine pouches). Their entire range comes in 2 pouch sizes, 10 different flavours and 3 different nicotine strengths - but you can learn more about this in our Nordic Spirit Review.
Nordic Spirit snus are small sachets containing nicotine derived from tobacco. Free from tobacco leaf, they offer a modern, smoke-free alternative to traditional nicotine products.
Nordic Spirit pouches work similarly to other nicotine pouches, being placed between the lip and gum. These tobacco-free pouches are available in various flavours, strengths, and sizes, making them suitable for diverse preferences. Designed to fit discreetly under your lip, the nicotine is delivered via the mucous membranes.

Nordic Spirit Cans
Nordic Spirit cans feature two compartments for convenience: the central can and the under-lid storage.
- - The Main Can: This is where the nicotine pouches are stored when they have not yet been used.
- - Under Lid Storage: In the top of the can, you can find a little storage container to put used snus if you don’t have a bin nearby. To open it, just look for the little dent at the top of the can, then lift up to reveal the storage compartment.
How to Open Nordic Spirit
Nordic Spirit nicotine pouches come in a circular plastic container, known as a can. The cans have a childproof lid which means it requires some effort to get it open (once you know how, it will be super simple to do!). To open a can, you just need to follow these two steps:
- 1. To open the can, locate the seal around the middle and gently break it using your fingers or nails while twisting.
- 2. Using one hand, gently press just below the gap and with your other hand, pull the lid up. You can gently twist the can as you pull if it requires a bit more force.
Nordic Spirit: How to use
Now you have opened the can, it is time to use your Nordic Spirit snus! Using Nordic Spirit is similar to how you would use other nicotine pouches or snus. Follow these simple steps:
1. Open the Can: Twist the lid to break the seal and access the pouches.
2. Place Under the Lip: Position the pouch comfortably between your upper lip and gum for optimal use. A mild tingling sensation may occur as the pouch activates.
3. Leave it in place: Leave the pouch in place for 5–60 minutes, depending on your preference. First-time users may prefer shorter durations (5–15 minutes). You will most likely feel a slight tingling sensation when you park the pouch, but this usually subsides after around 15 minutes.
4. Dispose Properly: After use, place the pouch in the under-lid compartment or a bin.

Best Placement for Nordic Spirit Pouches
The optimal placement for a nicotine pouch is between your upper lip and gum, as this allows the nicotine to release evenly. However, some users prefer positioning the pouch under their lower lip. Experiment to find the placement that feels most comfortable for you.
Choosing the Right Nordic Spirit Pouch
Nordic Spirit caters to various preferences with these options:
- - Nicotine Strengths: Options range from normal to extra strong, suitable for beginners and experienced users alike.
- - Flavour Variety: Explore flavours such as Mint, Bergamot Wildberry, and Elderflower.
- - Pouch Sizes: Choose between slim and mini sizes to suit your preferences.
How to Properly Dispose of Nordic Spirit
Once you have finished your can of Nordic Spirit, it is important to make sure you dispose of it correctly:
- - Place used pouches in the under-lid storage compartment or a bin.
- - Recycle the empty can where local facilities allow.
- - Avoid flushing pouches or disposing of them in compost.
Since the materials used to create Nordic Spirit nicotine pouches are not recyclable, it’s important that you do not throw the pouches in anywhere other than a regular bin. However, the cans are recyclable as they are made of polypropylene (PP), which is recycled in most places in the UK.
You can check with your local authority if you're unsure what is recycled in your area (just make sure to remove all the old pouches before putting your can in the recycling!).
Using Nordic Spirit Safely
Consider these guidelines in case you have any concerns about using Nordic Spirit:
- - Store Safely: Keep cans stored in a cool, dry place, safely out of reach of children and pets.
- - Check Nicotine Strength: Ensure the pouch matches your tolerance and preference.
- - Use Responsibly: Follow usage guidelines and avoid exceeding recommended intake.
- - Consult a Professional: If you have concerns about nicotine use, speak with a healthcare provider.
